The Profant Foundation For The Arts, a non-profit 501-c3, is an all-volunteer organization, supporting artists through scholarships, performances and exhibits. Sometimes life gets in the way of our dreams, and we believe that artists of all ages should be encouraged to pursue their talents.

The Wine Tasting Tour of El Paseo was produced to support an arts fundraiser. The tour was written by Richard and Amanda Payatt – Intrepid Reporters and Fearless Wine Fanatics – and published in a series of articles in CASA Magazine. The Profant Foundation for the Arts gratefully acknowledges their contribution to support artists of all ages and thanks the vintners for use of their images, model Karen Woosley, and photographer Lynda Millner, Montecito Journal.
